★★★★★
Great range of podcasts; listening to and controlling playback of individual podcasts works well; navigating and managing podcast series and favourites is not as easy as I'd like.
★★★★★
Acast is a good way to listen to podcasts in general and the only app i use use that actually allows me to download content directly from my Patreon subs - so much quicker and easier than trying to listen bu via the Patreon app or downloading them separately - and of course i don't need to keep checking to see if they are available. Worth downloading for that alone!
★★☆☆☆
It *was* brilliant. Now it barely loads anything even after a few tries so I'm using my music service to stream podcasts instead. Been like this for a week or so now. Shame as I quite liked acast and was much easier to manage than the music streaming subscription app.
★★☆☆☆
Feed doesn't seem to be working the last few days. I need to search my shows manually and look for new episodes, only then do they appear in the feed list!?.......
★★☆☆☆
Have been using this app for years now but is now failing to work. The functions have greatly reduced and the feed no longer updates so I am not getting any new episodes of my favourite podcasts. Real shame.
★★☆☆☆
They fixed the search but now not all episodes of my podcasts are showing. You used to be the best podcast player but I now have to have 2 others as a back up.
